Top 10 Deadliest Marvel Characters
Some of the best parts of superhero movies are those intense action scenes where superheroes and villains fight to the death. Whether fans are reading through origin stories or are watching the Avengers risk their lives to save the galaxy, it's always exciting to watch each characters' powers match up against each other as they battle for the fate of themselves and others. There's no shortage of ability to be enjoyed either, as the MCU is filled with characters that are each more powerful than the next. In order to make story plots as compelling as they could possibly be, Marvel committed themselves to giving the sides of good and evil an immense amount of power; and though some are more reserved or humble about their ability, others can only be characterized as deadly. This could leave fans wondering though, which side will ultimately prevail? The only way for anyone to know for certain is to consider each side's main players carefully against each other. Luckily for the fate of the world, the deadliest Marvel characters come from both sides of the aisle.

Hulk vs. Weapon H! The Hulk Catches the Flu?
Ever since Weapon H was created in 2018, I've been hoping that he would fight either Wolverine, Hulk, or both because the character is a mix of the two. So when I saw that Hulkverines came out I was pretty excited. The story is written by Greg Pak with Ario Anindito doing the art. The title is connected to the Weapon H title and the current Immortal Hulk—run by Al Ewing. Before we get into the story though, let's talk about Weapon H because he is not a well-known character.

Who Is Captain Marvel?
The buzz from the new movie Captain Marvel, which is hitting theaters March 8th, is just now erupting in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Many people who are fans of the Marvel movies, but were never avid comic book readers, may be asking the question, “Who is Captain Marvel?” This is a reasonable question to ask because she has not appeared in any other recent films created by Marvel studios. In fact, this character has yet to be seen at all on the big screen. So who is she? Let’s take a closer look.

'Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe'
All the things we love about Deadpool in a neat disturbing package. Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe has epic fourth wall breaks and all the characters you know and love dead. You would think a mini-series whose main storyline is all the characters dying would be sad and depressing, but in true Deadpool fashion, it's badass fight scenes and comedic timing alleviate the disturbing nature of the content. Add to that, most of the heroes (and villains) die in graphic but ridiculous ways, a lot of them being beheaded.

'Black Panther'
I have had this conversation many times, with many different people, but I normally get so angry I can’t formulate a solid argument—even though I’m right—so here we go. Certain people have told me that absolutely nothing in Black Panther's plot is political. Nothing... not the villain's entire motivation or 90 percent of his dialogue.
